Task Order 2: Design Build ADAL Building 728 and Repair Building 790
The focus of this project is the design/build and renovation works at two buildings. The first is the renovation of the interior of building 728 and the design/build addition to building 728. The addition to building 728 is to accommodate the new standard terminal automation replacement system (STARS) commissioning. The second building, building 790, requires renovation of the interior. Construction includes the outside plant connectivity for the secret Internet protocol router network (SIPRNet) from building 780 to building 790.
The STARS equipment supports the upgrade of the radar approach control (RAPCON) in flight rules (IFR) system for aircraft flying in other than visual flight rules (VFR) environments and focuses particularly on aircraft landing at Cannon AFB.
Common to both buildings is the critical delivery schedule to be met. To accomplish the required BOD’s, SJC and our design partner URS provided 3 separate fast track design packages and ensured functional design integration. Design package 1 provides fastrack design to allow for an early start of the building 728 addition including a soils/geotechnical report, foundation design, structural steel and structural masonry. Design package 2 (applicable to building 728 renovations and ADAL 3000 sf addition) provides for the electric power, HVAC and all interior improvements. Design Package 3 (applicable to Bldg 790) provides for all interior improvements and all communications engineering.
The renovation work at buildings 728 and 790 includes the renovation of offices and class rooms which include the transfer of an aircraft simulator into a tower simulator system (TSS) room located in building 728. The TSS room renovation work includes a raised floor and abatement of existing asbestos containing material.
Building 790 includes the renovation of offices and support spaces as well as a complete renovation of the Operations Room. The majority of the building 790 project work is internal, however the site component of the project includes removal of an existing concrete pad and curb on the second loading dock located on the west side of the building and replacing it with as 12’ x 16’ concrete ramp with hand rails.
The building 728 site layout was redesigned to accommodate the new building addition. The changes include the building addition expansion to the north, sidewalks, handicap access, installation of bollards to comply with CAFB AT-FP standards, and modifications to the drive entrance to control vehicle and pedestrian access to the facility and achieve AT-FP setback requirements. The renovation to building 728 includes an addition to the building of approximately 3,000 sf. The new addition houses a new standard terminal automation replacement system (SARS) operational function as well as support spaces for the existing building and new addition, including a new fire pump room.
Definable features of work for the renovation of building 728 include design; demolition, asbestos control and removal/disposal of paint with lead; cold-formed metal framing; architectural finishes include laminate clad casework, solid polymer fabrications, steel doors and frames, gypsum board, ceramic tile, acoustical ceilings, resilient flooring, carpet, rigid grid access flooring, wall and corner guards, toilet compartments and accessories, fire extinguishers and electric kitchen equipment; life safety wet pipe sprinkler system; HVAC systems with BACnet DDC; electrical systems, lighting control devices, interior distribution system, panelboards, interior and exterior lighting, emergency lighting and exit signs; communications system with optical backbone cabling; safety and security system with fire detection and alarm system, interior fire alarm and mass notification system; utilities include service piping, and outside plant telecommunications.
Task Order 1: Design/Build Consolidated Communications Facility
This project involves the design and construction of a 2-story communications facility with reinforced concrete foundations, steel frames, and reinforced concrete walls and floors. The exterior finish will consist of split-face concrete masonry unit (CMU) walls and standing-seam metal roof. Command Post area inside the facility will include necessary security walls, doors and ceilings. The project includes all utilities, pavements, site improvements, landscaping and required facility support. Additional requirements of the project include the demolishing of bldg 10 with the exception of the existing telephone switch. This project incorporates antiterrorism/force protection requirements in accordance with the DoD Unified Facility Criteria. Upon completion this facility will be able to adequately support the new communications systems requirements of incoming AFSOC organization to include six SF Operations Squadrons actively supporting the OCO; especially the 24/7 requirements for UAS.
